Those who know me, also know I always carry a camera with me. I preach there will be experiences in life you will want to record to pixels for future revisitation of special times.
This has been a bitter-sweet day, a testament to not following my own advice.
At mid-day, I noticed a pickup truck on the road in front of me. In the back was a massive creature that I thought at first was the largest most gorgeous dog I had ever seen. Yet, on closer examination, it seemed more wolf than dog. It wasn't long before the truck turned into a local shopping center, and parked in front of a restaurant. I quickly followed. I asked the owner, what kind of animal it was. They responded that it was a Hybrid - Half Wolf and half Husky.
Thor was one of the most amazing creatures I have encountered. Extremely affectionate, and majestic looking at the same time. I petted and loved on him for quite some time. When I started to walk away, he put his head back and howled at the sky as if it were a star and moon populated night. I quickly returned for another bout of petting, hoping he would be more content.
Yep folks, you guessed it. This was one of those rarest of experiences - My time with Thor, and the sad realization that I had absolutely no camera with me, not even my cellphone!
Lesson learned. . .Always travel with a lens!
Using the free photo editing tool, Photofunia, I created the drawing above. It is from a Wolf-Dog picture I found on the net, which looked most like Thor. But, Thor was larger!
An Experience to Remember - But Not Chronicled!
